Have I read this before: Nope. I don’t think I’d ever even considered reading this one; it was just one on my list that consistently got overlooked.  

Review: Yeah, so this is a completely different style of storytelling than what I’ve been reading so far on my list, haha. I think it took me a bit to get into it because of that, but once I got past the first 50 or so pages, I was pretty invested in the characters and seeing what all their traveling back and forth across the US would lead to. I really liked how unsettled everyone was, especially Dean. Like, even when he was “planted” in a city, he was still unsettled. The impulsivity is interesting and, sometimes, enviable.

Favorite part: I like how Sal keeps attributing the weirdness of San Francisco to it being “on the edge of the continent” or the “edge of America” so anything goes. I think that’s a really poetic way of describing it.
